Summary

Clinical Director - Berkshire

• A brand-new, independent practice – Shape the clinic from day one and make it your own
• Full clinical autonomy and leadership – Lead protocols, team recruitment, and equipment choices
• Partnership potential – For those with ambition and vision to grow with the business
• Modern, refurbished premises – Fully set up and ready for your customisation

A rare and exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to step into a Clinical Director role at a brand-new, independent veterinary practice in the heart of Berkshire. This is a truly unique chance to shape and lead a modern, fully refurbished clinic from the ground up, with real potential for future partnership.

The building is already set up as a veterinary practice and requires only cosmetic updates and personalisation, giving you the perfect blank canvas to create something exceptional. The vision is to grow into a 2.5–3 FTE practice—offering a close-knit team environment with space to scale sustainably. As Clinical Director, you’ll have the freedom and support to shape the clinical direction, establish protocols, select equipment, and most importantly, build and develop a talented and passionate team around you.

This role places you right at the centre of decision-making from day one. You’ll be involved in everything from recruiting new team members and finalising the clinic’s setup, to ensuring high clinical standards and client care from the outset. Working closely with the practice management, you’ll also play a vital role in business development and practice growth, bringing your own ideas and vision to life.

My client is looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon with a strong clinical background, ideally with prior leadership experience in roles such as Senior Vet, Clinical Lead, or Clinical Director. What matters most is that you’re passionate about delivering outstanding patient care, have a genuine interest in developing people, and bring an entrepreneurial mindset to help grow and shape the business. Strong communication and leadership skills are essential, along with the drive to take ownership of this exciting project.

This is more than just a job—it’s a chance to create something of your own. With a newly refurbished space, full input into equipment and design choices, and the backing of supportive ownership, you’ll have the opportunity to build a practice that reflects your standards and values. For the right person, there is also the potential to take on a partnership role in the future.

If this sounds like the kind of challenge you've been waiting for, I would love to hear from you. Please get in touch for a friendly, informal chat to find out more about what makes this opportunity so special.

The Package:

• Competitive salary, negotiable depending on experience and responsibilities
• Generous CPD allowance with support for further certifications
• Pension scheme and professional memberships covered
• Partnership opportunities for long-term career growth
• Flexible rota to ensure work-life balance
